First posting

Totally agree with Bel. Each one of us faced with this deals with it differently , reacts differently and taking it a day at a time too is a good approach. I haven't read of anyone bragging that they've climbed a mountain but certainly it is not always bad for all of us all of the time, so if you're feeling up to work or being out and about go for it. The doctors taking care of me have all been very supportive and encouraging of my working and exercising if I felt like it, and I have. The research is in that those who continue to exercise through chemo will cope better and recover more quickly, even if its a walk to the post box and back that is all someone can handle on some day. I have also taken every opportunity to be horizontal in between shifts, or when I needed it. Chemo is behind me now, and I do wish at times I could have just said I'm taking three months off or whatever, but running my own business it wasn't an option. It would have collapsed and then I could have dealt with that stress on top of everything else. Listen to your body, your head, and your heart. they won't lead you astray on what's the right way for you. I remain very grateful that I was able to function almost as normal through treatment. Now let the hair growth begin!!!!! x
